LLMs automate codebook generation for political discourse quality analysis

Researchers have developed a new protocol for generating and evaluating codebooks using large language models (LLMs) to assess the quality of parliamentary discourse. This method aims to overcome the limitations of traditional expert-scored codebooks, which are rigid and prone to bias. The proposed protocol compares top-down, bottom-up, and hybrid approaches for schema generation, introducing intrinsic inter-model agreement (IMA) and extrinsic proxy measures for evaluation. Experiments on Israeli parliamentary transcripts showed that data-driven schemas achieved higher IMA and maintained validity, suggesting their effectiveness for large-scale political discourse analysis.

    From DQI to C-DQI: Automatic Codebook Generation and Evaluation for Measuring Computational Discourse Quality Index

    Effective democratic deliberation is vital for civic engagement and the health of legislative institutions. However, assessing parliamentary discourse quality is traditionally done using expert-scored, theory-based codebooks (CBs), which are rigid, labor-intensive, and prone to b…
